DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a bra with Velcro straps on the side tocreate individual cleavage. The Velcro straps along the ribcage willwrap around and allow women to create their own cleavage.

The bra would open in the front and have two strips of Velcro along theside of the bra that will wrap around on each side of the rib cage. Asmall snap-on button will secure the Velcro on each side of the ribcage.The Velcro on the side will allow women to maximize or minimize theirlevel of cleavage. One would put on the bra by simply putting both armsthrough the holes and have the bra open in the front. Then one wouldgrab the hanging strips of Velcro and slide it along the side of theopposite ribcage. I would like to incorporate beautiful floral designs,animal print, geometric patterns, polka dots, stripes, lace, and avariety of solid colors, so that the bra does not appear orthopedic orgeneric. Another concept is to create a minimizing bra using the Velcrofor full-sized women who do not want to reveal too much. The Velcrowould again be along the side of the ribcage; however, the cups of thebra will be a full-size so as to support the woman's breasts withoutrevealing the cleavage. The straps on the shoulders will be thicker andhave foam inside to create a more comfortable bra. There will be anoption to have a thicker material bra (of foam) in order to eliminatethe appearance of the nipple. Again, the designs of the bra will come infloral, animal print, geometric patterns, polka dots, stripes, lace, anda wide-range of colors. The bras, as aforementioned, will come indifferent fabrics. There will be a standard nylon 90% spandex 10% bra, a100% polyether foam shoulder strap bra, and a 100% polyether foam brawith a cashmere cup outer-lining for the winter.

The Velcro and the front-opening are absolutely necessary. There shouldbe a front hook-and-eye just to secure the bra in the front. Also, alongthe ribcage there will be a snap-on button to secure the Velcro.

The Velcro will hang down from the sides of the bra and wrap around theribcage. The hanging strips of Velcro will wrap around each side of theopposite ribcage and secure to a second strip of Velcro.

The Velcro will wrap around the side of the ribcage, thus allowing womento create their own cleavage and be able to take it on and off easily.

A designer will first start off with a currently made bra and refashionit so that it opens in the front and attach Velcro along the sides todemonstrate the functionality of the design.

Instead of using Velcro, snap-on buttons along the side would be just aseffective. However, there would have to be a few snap-on buttons so thatwomen can make the bra looser or tighter depending on how much cleavageshe wants to show.

One would put on the bra by simply putting both arms through the holesand have the bra open in the front. Then one would grab one of thehanging strips of Velcro and slide it around the side of the oppositeribcage and secure it to the Velcro already along the ribcage. Thesecond strip of Velcro would go on the opposite ribcage and again besecured to the Velcro already along the ribcage. Then a snap-on buttonattached to a smaller piece of fabric will be fastened so as to securethe Velcro. The snap-on button will be on both sides of the ribcage. Afront hook-and-eye will be secured as well.

There are currently no bras that allow you to create your own cleavageby closing on the sides. The Velcro along the side of the bra will allowfor one to maximize, minimize, or remain neutral with how much cleavageshe wants to reveal. The bra would eliminate the need for a back claspclosure, which can be quite uncomfortable.

1. What I claim as my invention is a bra with Velcro straps on the sideto create individual cleavage. The Velcro straps along the ribcage willwrap around and allow women to create their own cleavage.
